Old Republic International's board of Directors has raised the insurance holding company's quarterly dividend by 8.6%, to 31.5 cents from 29 cents.
The new payout, equal to $1.26 a year, represents an annual yield of about 2.95%, based on Thursday's closing price of $42.69, up from 2.72%.
The Chicago company on Friday said the increased dividend is payable March 19 to shareholders of record March 9.
Old Republic, which has now raised its dividend for 45 straight years, in January paid a special cash dividend of $2.50 a share.
